Sign - Welcome [#welcome] Shreck, from another Sooner!! I'm south and east about 130 miles in a little town called Spiro.
You're gonna like it here.
Is that "great hobby shop" you're talking about in Owasso??? That seems to be the one that the other Sooners on here talk about. They say it is fantastic!!
